My tool bars are see through and my desk top show through

I just installed Firefox 4 and when trying to install tool bars, the tabs and site screen move down and I can see my desktop (blurry) in the background. The tool bars are also semi-transparent and when I add tool bar items by dragging them up to tool bar area, they are almost invisible. Seems the background is missing above the tabs. I also attempted to create and name a new tool bar and add the items to it, but cannot because it does not show up anywhere in the list or on the screen. Where does it go?

Right click in a free space on your desktop.

There are four options in Windows 7 at the bottom of the screen, choose "Window Color and Appearance". 
Select a border color 
Uncheck: "Enable transparency"

* If the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down, that should make the Menu bar appear (Firefox 3.6 on Windows) (see [[Menu bar is missing]]).
* Make sure that you have the ''Navigation Toolbar'' and other toolbars visible: View > Toolbars .
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to the Navigation toolbar.
* If you do not see that item then click the Restore Default Set button in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.

My emails are appearing along the top of the page in the tool bar area? how do i get rid of this and back to the regular email page

I opened my Mozilla yesterday and noticed my email page format was different then after a second, I noticed all my emails were now appearing along the top of the page in the tool bar area below "Fine Edit View Go ...etc" I'm not sure what happened. PLEASE help me I'm sure it's probably an easy fix, however I don't know how to fix it :)~ Also they are oldest email first, and since I normally save them for 45 days before deleting, I cant seem to get to the most recent email first. Ugh.
Truly appreciate your help.

This is what happens when you continually open messages in tabs but never close them. Pretty soon all you have are message tabs showing and you have pushed the Inbox off the screen.
Get in the habit of closing message tabs after you read them.
To get out of your situation now, right click one of the tabs and select Close Other Tabs. Then use the x to close the last one.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I accidentaly removed my tool bar where edit bookmarks and that stuff were how do i get it back with all my bookmarks

well this black bar showed up in the tool bar area and i thought it was some sort of tool bar so i went to view toolbars and while trying to figure out which one it was either removed or hid the tool bar with view, edit, bookmarks, and all those things on them how do i get it back and will my bookmarks still be the same

* In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
* Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
* Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

How do I stop utorrent seach on my tool bar without clicking options and unclicking utorrent

How do I stop utorrent seach on my tool bar without clicking options and unclicking utorrent . I just don't want it ! but I want to keep utorrent on my desk top short cuts.

You could try the Customize feature. Call up the Customize dialog using either of the following, then drag the unwanted icon into the dialog and click Done:
* right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Customize
* tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Customize
If it comes back in a future session, you might need to experiment with disabling the uTorrentControl extension on the following tab:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
Does that prevent the site from working correctly?

I seem to have fixed it by putting <div class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

Can i share all documents and files on my mac book pro and mac desk top using word

can i share all documents and files on my mac book pro and mac desk top using word

Hello, you should be able to if they're running the same version of Word.
When you log into the Desktop for File Sharing from the MBP, use the Desktop's Username & Desktop's Password, & vice versa if logging into the MBP from the Desktop.

I do not know if I hit a botton or what but the top of the tool bar where the bookmarks and tools tabs are is gone. How do I get it back?

Bookmarks and tools tabs are gone???

If your Menu Bar, all Toolbars, '''''and Tabs''''' are gone, you are probably in Full Screen Mode. Tap F11 one time to turn Full Screen Mode on or off.
'''Can't see the Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)?
Turning the Menu Bar on and off is a new feature in version 3.6.
''(~~red:Linux & OSX see~~: [[Menu bar is missing]] )''
''Windows'' Method 1. '''''Hold down''''' the key and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M
''Windows'' Method 2. Press and release the key. The Menu Bar will be displayed; then choose ~~red:V~~iew > ~~red:T~~oolbars and click on ~~red:M~~enu Bar.
The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again using View > Toolbars. Check mark = displayed, NO check mark = not displayed.

My Google tool bars are gone and info. says 5.0 does not support...I want to return to 4.0

I had a Google tool bar with Google Bookmarks, auto fill, spell check and several other "buttons" all are gone and information I located said that Firefox 5.0 does not support...I am not happy...I used these tool bars all the time. I want to return to Firefox 4.0

I am very unhappy...will probably return to internet explorer...I used my google tool bar all the time...it was the most used and most important part of my computer.

(do not track feature) does not show message in tool bar area how can i fix this and how do i know if it is working?

i used this feature before and a message appeared in tool bar that privacy was on, this no longer happens i have tried the tools / options / privacy setting with no luck. any fixes available?

This feature has likely been provided by an extension that is disabled or no longer installed, possibly because you have reset Firefox.

Query in Tool Bar Area Searching option.

Hi All,
There is a tool bar Searching iView with us.But when any user searches through it, the search option is working fine.But the results shows files with open folder and details option (as we do not want some user go inside details option and change the permissions settings of that file).Can anyone tell me how can we remove open folder and details options??
Regards,
Udit

Hi,
The UI Command Group resposible to show Open Folder, See Also and Details Commands is SearchSingleItemGroup.
So open it and remove the browse_from_here and SingleDetailsGroup(expanded) UICommands.
choose System Administration --> System Configiuration --> KM --> Content Management --> User Interface --> Commands --> UI Command Group.

I can't open links in firefox. I must drag them to the tool bar or right click and open in a new page

I am running Vista and installed a new version of firefox yesterday plus I messed around with trying to block some obnoxious advertising pop up windows. Now I can't open links and must drag them to the browser bar or right click and "open in a new window". How do I fix this? I tried to restart Firefox but it didn't help. thanks!

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Try to open a new window and see if that window works.
You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

For no apparent reason the top tool bar line has dissappeared and if i place mouse over the top of page, FireFox will come up but not "File" and now cannot find "Prinit". "History", etc. Help???

The tool bar line has suddenly disappeared and cannot print or check history. Also, bottom tool bar has disappeared so cannot see clock, shift to other programs.
Only happens with FireFox. If I access any www site via FireFox, same problem. I have re-booted several times, same problem.
